CHART OF THE DAY: People Are Spending More Time In Mobile Apps Than On The Web

People are spending more time inside mobile applications on
average than they are on the web, according to
an analysis from Flurry, a mobile analytics firm.

Flurry measures the time people spend in apps through its own
direct analytics. It got numbers for the web using public data
from comScore and Alexa. The analysis is somewhat imperfect, but
even if you judge it solely on a directional basis you can see
mobile apps are consuming more and more time.

So what are people doing in those apps? Gaming and social
networking, which absorb 79% of people's time, according to
Flurry. The rest is news, entertainment, and other apps.
